kcbubbapat Posted August 31, 2016 Share Posted August 31, 2016 Good Day Fellow Builders, I have a question regarding SLI which I am not familiar with at all. I am currently running P3D v3.3.5 AND FSX. I have three (3) GTX980 video cards each running a 50"-4K TV. The graphics are quite good, better in P3D but not as good as I think I can get it to be. My question is: If I place an SLI bridge across all 3 video cards and use only 1 50" TV, will that increase the graphics in either FSX or P#D or both? I am getting mixed messages from different people and figured I would appeal to the Experts! Any comments? Thank you so much Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
il88pp Posted August 31, 2016 Share Posted August 31, 2016 I'm no expert. Have only one card myself. What I saw here on the forum is that everyone says sli/crossfire brings no benefit in fsx. Can even cause issues. The only people I saw that said they use 2 cards use 6 monitors. They just need extra connectors. [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
comtedeloach Posted September 1, 2016 Share Posted September 1, 2016 It may work great or not, but I think it's more of a pain in the butt than most people need. But ft there are two GPU's on one card, that's the way to go if you want SLI or whatever the AMD/ATI equivalent is.

CRJ_simpilot Posted September 21, 2016 Share Posted September 21, 2016 I have read that extra GPUs will cut into the CPU and since Flight Simulator is very CPU dependent it may lower FPS, etc. OOM errors?
